I went on a hike once with timberland boots that had been in a closet for a couple years. The glue dissolved at the destination (freshwater swimming area) and the rubber sole separated from the leather upper. I had to hike back to the car in moccasins.
Not good for any type of boot. I bought a pair on clearance from Sears. Legit wanted a pair of steel toe work boots for yard work and other work around the house. After about 3 years of light wear the soul started to fall away.
I would have been better off with a cheap work boot from Walmart.

Timerland boots are anything but good hiking boots.

Almost same thing happened to me, including them being timberland boots.
These things have long been subject to enshittification.
I had some Docs split between lower and mid sole after light wear. I guess there was a reason they got rid of their lifetime warranty.
